Lyrics Tiny Dancer - Live In Australia 1986 - Elton John

Blue jean baby
L.A. lady
Seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed
Pirate smile
You'll marry a music man

Ballerina
You must have seen her
Dancing in the sand
Now she's in me
Always with me
Tiny dancer in my hand

Jesus freaks
Out on the street
Handing tickets out for God
Turning back
She just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad

Piano man
He makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on
She sings the songs
The words she knows
The tune she hums

But oh, how real it feels
Lying here, with no one near
Only you and you can hear me
When I say softly, slowly

Hold me closer, Tiny Dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today

Hold me closer, Tiny Dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today

Blue jean baby
L.A. lady
Seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed
Pirate smile
You'll marry a music man

Ballerina
You must have seen her
Dancing in the sand
Now she's in me
Always with me
Tiny Dancer in my hand

Oh, how real it feels
Lying here, with no one near
Only you and you can hear me
When I say softly, slowly

Hold me closer, Tiny Dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today

Hold me closer, Tiny Dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today

Tiny Dancer

We're gonna do a song from the "Don't Shoot Me" album
This is a song with a revolutionary string arrangement
For songs like this when we recorded it
Nobody did string arrangements like this
And this is why Buckmaster was so good
This is called "Have Mercy on the Criminal"
